Our winners today 🍍

🥇 A lovely autumn day at Ville Haute - Luxembourg | Euro Tour by @priyanarc

Luxembourg is a tiny country renowned for its captivating blend of historic charm and modern vitality. The country is surrounded by Germany, Belgium, and France, nestled in Western Europe. We went there by road so our trip took around 4.5 hours (oneway) via Germany. I thought we would go to Luxembourg via Belgium because we live in the Netherlands but later, the driver told us, that the German route was faster. The country is tiny but Because of a thriving economy, the rumor says that this country is one of the richest European countries compared to its size. The reason for such a growth economy is the robust financial sector and thriving steel industry. Besides, the country's picturesque landscapes, featuring rolling green hills and ancient castles, draw in tourists and nature enthusiasts alike. That's one of the reasons I wanted to go to Luxembourg in Autumn.

🥈 Kehlsteinhaus: Hitlers Eagles Nest by @leaky20

The building itself wasn't anything special to be honest. It was pretty unremarkable really, which is why I dont have any photos of the interior except one. It was probably something special back in its day, but now it just looks like an old, somewhat outdated, ski-lodge - not run down, just very simple and rustic. There was a restaurant up there and some tables to sit at but not really a whole lot to explore.

🥉 Ormoc Trilogy: Conquering Mt. Malingatong and Mt. Janagdan by @danahnatalie

I've been feeling great lately and finally have the mood to write about my overwhelming first-ever major climb in my life. It happened during the first weekend of October in Ormoc City, Leyte, Philippines. What made it so overwhelming, aside from being my first major climb, was that I didn't just climb one or two mountains, but three! Those three mountains are Mt. Janagdan, Mt. Malingatong, and, of course, the highest peak in Eastern Visayas, Mt. Alto. Basically, this is our ORMOC TRILOGY ADVENTURE!
